The Project for Awesome (or P4A) is an annual event where we raise awareness of charities that make the world a little bit of a better place and we raise money to redistribute to charities voted on by our community.
Legally speaking, the Project for Awesome is a project of the Foundation to Decrease World Suck (or FTDWS), a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. The FTDWS exists to fundraise for the benefit of other nonprofits and only awards grants to organizations that are 501(c)(3) or foreign equivalent classified charities. The nine board members are John Green, Hank Green, Mike Green, Marie Ann Fernandez-Silva, Valerie Barr, Taylor Behnke, Benny Fine, Rosianna Halse Rojas, and Angela Lin.
Habibi.Works is located at 200m distance from Katsikas refugee camp, where over 1,000 people on the move are living while they go through the asylum process. At its core, Habibi.Works is dedicated to supporting individuals who are seeking a life of safety and dignity in Europe. Alongside support on the ground, day-to-day, we aim to raise awareness about the lived experience of asylum seekers and refugees, elevate the voices of people on the move, and challenge anti-migration narratives.
